For Disney fans out there I want you to think about Beauty and the Beast and that wonderful scene when they ask Belle to “Be Our Guest”. I had been singing this song in my head for the past few days since receiving an email from the team at Petite Mort asking if I would […]

Balthazar was one of those places I’ve wanted to go to for a long time and had just never gotten around to. It’s had a consistent reputation as a solid fine dining establishment for many moons now and I’ve long been keen to sample the food that warranted such longevity. The stars aligned and an […]

Many moons ago…. And we’ll say back in the day when I was spending the majority of my days in the Physics Department at Curtin, a good friend of mine and I used to be particularly partial to the gnocchi sorrentino from Siena’s in Mt Lawley. I had fond memories of our visits there over […]

GG and I do not often head out for breakfast. It’s not that we mind early starts on the weekend, but there always seems to be a bit to do in the morning, so we find ourselves more at lunch or dinner. However last Saturday we had an early appointment in Joondalup (suit fittings for […]

A nouveau wave of Mexican cuisine has washed over Perth and as a big Mexican food fan, I am all for it. Now I’d been to el PUBLICO (http://atomic-temporary-19383105.wpcomstaging.com/2012/03/31/el-publico/), twice now actually, but a place around before this Highgate haunt was not too far down the road in Northbridge – La Cholita.

I do enjoy the indulgence of a long lunch. The sublime loveliness of spending some quality time with some of your nearest and dearest, with a cheeky vino in hand and an impressive menu ahead is one of my favourite things. And for many years now I’ve been lucky enough to procure tickets to the […]

Another lunch outting with my office’s fellow foodie was well overdue. But where should we go? Well as fortune would have it I stumbled across a review by Gail Williams for a place in Applecross called Jacs. It sounded delightful – the thought of a lazy lunch underneath a canopy of jacaranda trees, more than […]

It’s all a bit turning Japanese, turning Japanese I really think so at the moment. Well it felt that way when I ventured to another Japanese restaurant earlier this week with my sister, Miss A, in tow. I’d read through a few other bloggers reviews before my visit and it seemed to me they had […]

GG and I had thought it would be nice to head out to dinner with his parents on Saturday night and we’d heard of a restaurant down near their place called the Hunter’s Lodge. A fellow from his work had heard good things about said lodge so we made a few calls, lined up a […]

As my food blogger alter ego, Perth Munchkin, every now and then I get emails with invitations to do cool food related things. I’m very spoilt and feel very fortunate that a few folks read my foodie musings. An email I received the other week was from a lovely lady who had recently started up […]
